Frequently Asked Questions
How do you assist with MSO and CPOM compliance
We advise healthcare businesses on entity structure, management-services arrangements, contracts, and compliance issues that may affect ownership and operations. The appropriate structure depends on the professionals involved, services offered, and governing state law.
What role does IP play in healthcare practices
Brands, software, content, processes, and other intellectual property can affect ownership, licensing, financing, and the value of a healthcare business. We help identify who owns those assets and whether agreements support the business’s goals.
How do you support brand and innovation protection
As a USPTO-registered patent attorney, Ahaji Amos advises on patents, trademarks, trade secrets, ownership, licensing, and enforcement strategy. The right tools depend on the asset, timing, budget, and business plan.
Why is succession planning important for owners?
Succession planning helps owners address governance, continuity, buy-sell terms, incapacity, death, and a future sale before a transition becomes urgent. The plan should coordinate with estate and tax planning and the company’s governing documents.
When should I begin legal exit preparations
Exit preparation should begin early enough to correct ownership, contract, governance, IP, and compliance issues before diligence starts. Many owners benefit from a formal review several years before a planned transition.
